The Universal Spring Mount Antenna Range Sticks its Neck Out

Cobham Adds a Dual-Band Gooseneck Antenna to its Universal Range

Newmarket, United Kingdom: Cobham Antenna Systems, a
market-leading antenna solutions provider, announces the launch of
a dual-band, Gooseneck addition to the 'Universal' spring mount
range of omni-directional antennas. The Gooseneck antenna, along
with a selection of the 'Universal' spring mount antennas, will be
available to view on Cobham's booth #1319 in Hall 1 at (AUVSI's)
XPONENTIAL 2016, 2-5 May 2016 at the Ernest N. Morial Convention
Center in New Orleans, Louisiana.

The OA2-2.3V-5.2V/2358 is a ground plane independent, dual band
antenna which covers the frequency ranges 2.10 - 2.60GHz and 4.40 -
6.00GHz, offering 4dBi gain in the higher frequencies.

It can be used for multi-band applications providing a versatile
antenna for use with software defined radios taking up less 'real
estate' on the platform on which it is mounted. It can also be used
to replace several single band antennas, reducing inventory.

The OA2-2.3V-5.2V/2358 has been designed to withstand extremely
harsh environments. A glass fibre radome and IP68 rated waterproof
exterior mean it is able to withstand heavy impacts as well as
extreme weather conditions.

A permanently fixed Gooseneck allows users to mount the antenna
on radios or handheld/body-worn devices and position the antenna as
they need or see fit. During active deployment, where the operator
maybe standing or lying in prone position, the antenna can be bent
to be vertical for optimum performance. It reduces impacts on the
antenna and the radio to which it is attached by allowing the
antenna to bend away from the point of impact.

Cobham has a range of single band, spring and gooseneck mount
alternatives available and would be happy to discuss bespoke
development projects.
